What the longest it can take on hiv test . I been tested all the one year from raped, all negative?

Question:

I was blood donor and had to stop cause raped. so the longest is one year ? do I need to keep on testing for raped

Answers:
Over 99% of people will test positive with the HIV antibody test by 12-13 weeks. The other fraction of a percent who take longer would already have a compromised immune system.chemo/radiation, transplant recipient, or anyone on large doses of steroids. Unless this is you, a test at 13 weeks is considered conclusive. However, if it is really bothering you, test again at 6 months for peace of mind.

And HIV is NEVER dormant in the body. From the time it enters your body and infects its first cell, it begins to multiply exponentially. Without treatment (ARVs) HIV can make more than 10 BILLION copies of itself EVERYDAY. A person is at their most infectious in the first three months after becoming infected!

Hope this helps

By 3-4 months it should show up if you have it.

You need to be re-checked 6 months after being tested for HIV. The virus can lay dormant in your system for up to 6 months after being infected.
